New Buy :

Master Card ( MA ) :

Master Card is credit card service company , but categorized as information technology. Master Card has been in my wish list for a very long term . I have been big fan of credit card service company , where they earn easy money from transaction cost with low maintenance .

The dividend yield is only 0.45% – but why did we chose for so low yield ?

I just don’t look for yield, but I mainly look for growth factors.

5 year growth of dividend – 40.30%

Dividend Payout ratio – 22%

Yield on Cost ( 5 year ) – 2. 39%

If we look at the 5 year yield on cost stands at 2.39% , with amazing 40.30% 5 year dividend growth . This itself provides a big buying point for low dividend yield stock.

Last 5 year, the stock has return 230%

Recent Sell :

Intel ( INTC ) : I have been holding this stock for for past 3 years almost , but the stock has hitting lot of news in recent time.

The dividend yield is good, but when looking at 5 year growth rate is only 4.6%. Which really makes uncomfortable for dividend growth investor.
